SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) NSP7 Protein, His Tag (MALS verified)

During the formation of the coronaviral replication/transcription complex, essential steps include processing of the conserved polyprotein nsp7-10 region by the main protease Mpro and subsequent complex formation of the released nsp's. Upon infecting host cells, coronaviruses assemble a multi-subunit RNA-synthesis complex of viral non-structural proteins (nsp) responsible for the replication and transcription of the viral genome. non-structural proteins 7 (NSP7) forms a hexadecamer with nsp8 (8 subunits of each) that may participate in viral replication by acting as a primase. Alternatively, may synthesize substantially longer products than oligonucleotide primers.

This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus. The protein has a calculated MW of 11.3 kDa. The protein migrates as 12 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) .
